Hello Chongyun,

Are you aware of the linux-scsi mailing list? I think this question would be
more appropriate for that mailing list. Regarding your question, I think that
you should be aware of the following comment above the proc write method that
implements that functionality: "this provides a legacy mechanism to add or
remove devices".
